200K subs, I watched one of your videos out of curiosity and tbh I wasn't surprised. Given that you actually had to study to learn how to convert percent to decimal, I can say without a shadow of a doubt NAR knows mountains more about radio than you. So sit down.
My wife and I use the tones to keep extraneous electrical noise from coming through the radio. Works well. No other people on the channel, but the radio doesn't startle us anymore with random static sounds. Thanks for another great video!
I have used radios for years to just talk with people while riding in the mountains. Today i was looking for a new radio and happened on to your page..... You are the BEST! I subscribed and have just been watching your videos all day, screw work!
Outstanding instructional video Randy. I learned more in this 14 minute video than all other GMRS or ham radio videos created by the "experts". The "expert' videos spend too much time defining what each acronym's means followed by a painfully detailed, and long explanation, about how they work in the electronics of the radio. Most "experts" ignore the KISS principle in life! And n one of them have the hands of a true artist.
That is not at all what I was expecting. I think 95% of us have a preconceived notion of the tones or privacy channels just by their name. Very interesting - thanks for putting this out there
Good basic explanation for something that can be confusing. The PL tones are especially useful in the commercial two-way radio field. We would use repeaters with controllers that would recognize a number of different tones, one for each different group of customers. The repeater controller would replicate the PL that was received and send it to the transmitter. Another customer we had was a taxi company that used PL tones in a unique way for its operational needs. When the dispatcher transmitted, it was with a PL tone that all of its cars were setup to receive. The dispatchers radio did not have PL on their radio for receive and the cars did not transmit a PL tone, so the dispatcher could hear all the cars when they transmitted. Since all the cars had receive PL on their radios, they could not hear any other car when they transmitted, only the dispatcher. This would prevent the drivers from idling chatting to each other or perhaps swapping fares with each other.
And using the tone has always made it easier for those scanning such systems and individual freqs at a site add in the tone and your listening to the user u want and not another a few miles away or interference
Never been a ham but only used scanners with sub tones for 25 years, no way would I but a scanner with no automatic sub tone decoder and now same for dmr and similar, right code in means I'm listening to the user I want and cutting down on interference
In uk single freqs users can have seperate tone for a department shopping centre or mall nr me 35 years on same 169.2375 82.5 cleaners 103.5 security, and we even have ctcss dcs mixed, a beach patrol I know 103.5 repeater out dcs 023 input
@@tnfreemason- They don’t like roger beeps on the ham bands because they know what the beeps are used for. Everyone knows, by now, that it’s the mating call for rump rangers using the radio. It’s how they identify each other on the down low and arrange meetings at the truck stop restroom glory hole. Those sad hams are just trying to keep, and maintain, a family atmosphere in their little area of the radio world. I’m not judging, just saying. If you guys are in to that sort of thing who am I to berate any roger beep user for a chance at love?
I make roger beep filters for radios so that no one has to hear them anymore and soon all the manufacturers will have them in all radios as default on so it defeats the obnoxious and irritating and annoying people who use such useless beeps! Ha ha ha ha
I use the “tone” concept at home with my wife … if she talks with a normal friendly voice (frequency A no tone) I hear her and respond, however if she talks in a bitch condescending voice (frequency B+tone) I tune her out and continue to drink my beer and watch the game.
Very helpful Randy. This explains why I couldn't pair up two new (my first two) radios. I could see the green light but couldn't hear anything. This shits definitely complicated, but very simple once you do finally get it. I appreciate the videos man
This is so simple, but I am glad you broke it down for people who don’t understand it. I will use this video for future reference when I’m asked about privacy codes.
I always laugh out loud with your very informative and truthful videos and calling out self-appointed experts on their short-sighted view of everything. Thank you sir, keep up the great work!
Thank you Randy, you may have solved the problem my sister-in-law has with hearing chatter and static. It has never been a problem for her, she just shuts off the radio because she would rather not listen to anyone than to listen to everyone.
Thank you Sir, you are saving me a lot of brain damage! Your channel complements the Baofeng user's manual well! I just finished signing up for a GMRS lic with the FCC. If I didn't find this channel I would most likely be chewing up a number of #2 yellow pencils:)
I have a suggestion for a great video. I bought a pair of cheap Samcom T2 radios just to tinker. Interesting feature is when they are scanning the 30 GMRS channels and detect a transmission, they INSTANTLY dispays the ctcss code (0-121) along with the active channel number. Any other radios do this instantly? I think newer GMRS radios should all have this feature. It is goofy having to activate ctcss scan on each independent transmssion you are seeking the tone on.
Ha! Never a dull moment been watching your videos to be honest I'll just keep the tone business off so I can try to hear entire spectrum I see the little green light occasionally flicker on but can not hear anyone though? So do I need to add a tone for that frequency to truly hear it I have the uv5r & uv5rx Thank You
Awesome video! Brand new to the radio world, but I've been trying to soak up as much as I can, and your videos are funny and extremely informative. Thanks!!
Thanks, This helped a lot. I will be setting up a repeater on my property in AZ and there are a few others I should be able to reach and I don't want to 'step on any toes'.
So, question: how are Midland's "extra" channels set up? With Tx tones, or Rx tones? Also, if two people key up at the same time, and only one of them has a tone set, and the receiver has a tone set, will both transmissions come thru because of the one radio that is actually transmitting the tone?
I'm trying to make sense of this in how it applies to fire department vhf communication pagers. My pager has two channels. 1 is called page only, where it only activates if it hears a tone. Channel 2 is monitor, where everything is heard. Im thinking there is some sort of tone programmed on the receive (pager) of channel 1.
Keep in mind that one UV5R and similar you cannot key in the CTCSS tone, the UV5R gods require you to use the up and down arrows while in menu mode. This confuculated me greatly until wisdom was granted. 73 all.
I have tested & reviewed probably 50 to 75 radios, mostly GMRS but also a couple of ham and LMR radios, and none, not a single one, allows you to key in a CTCSS tone..
That was awesome. I am a newbie virgin to HAM. I have started watching videos and reading to get a Technician License, and everything seems so overly complicated. Seem like it is almost on purpose to keep the "Club" small. I am going to subscribe in the hope that up have more simplified videos to remove the hocus pocus magical wiz bag confuculations surrounding this neato HAM radio club. I already purchased my pocket protector and bow tie, so bring it on.
You're vindicated they really don't want you to get your ticket without drinking the arrl kool-aid. Much resentment is harbored for prepper types and those that wish to use radios for practical field applications on a ham license.
@@falloutforever88 I have never been in the "I once made a random contact at 0345 Zulu in New Zealand from New Jersey during a full moon and solar cycle 3 crowd". I'm more into "when I press TX, 99% of the time, my intended recipient will hear me" crowd.

Question: is it possible to use squelch tones to first access a repeater and then another squelsh tone to only hear one other radio on the same repeater, thereby ignoring what other radios transmit using the same repeater? I would think not, but I want to check. Thank you
@@TheNotaRubicon Thank you Randy! And your videos are, by far, the best on the Internet. Though my wife is kind of pissed at you, since YOU made me buy lots of (very good!!!) radios (thank you!!!) 🙂
I keep forgetting this crap. Read over it 20 times. Used tge online quizes. Then, it vanishes from long term memory. Probably because, I dont have to remember. Anyone remember when Atari came out ?
While using the correct tone to activate the repeater, you can then use a DTMF ID code manually entered if the station you wish to communicate with has that function available; sort of like a telephone number.
This is great! I am a manual reader and I learned stuff (receiving light) that i did not know. I am curious do transmitting tone slightly influence range? Thank you
I had wondered the same thing so I did a bench setup with test equipment that could generate signals along with tones. I found that it was only at the very edge of a receiver's ability to detect a very weak signal where it might not be able to "hear" the tone in order to open the squelch. At that point you could use the monitor button to open the squelch manually but with such a weak signal you would probably have difficulty making out what the station was saying. I also found that the DCS digital codes would stop being detected slightly before the analog CTCSS on such a weak signal.
I have a baofeng bf 21. after giving up trying to set it up, I turned it off for a while then turned it back on and it wants an input password. cannot find info on this issue. appreciate any guidance.
acknowledging the marketing confuchulation , I also have to wonder; Do "privacy tones" technically facilitate a higher communication density on a single frequency?
A transmitting tone is usually only needed to use a repeater or to talk to someone who's radio is configured only to hear people with a tone. A receive-tone is ALWAYS optional and used only to blank-out anyone else not using the tone so you dont have to hear them.
Also, I have a rt97 set up to cover the tiny town I live in. Could you suggest a way to add zello to it. I have did the walkie talkie with a VOX and a phone and it clips off the first of the traffic every time. Thanks in advance.

"Don't use that tone with me!" Mother
When you are using any code CTCSS, DCS, or any other have effects on the rage. These privacy codes reduce the covering area
Because need more strong Rx signal to open the squelch as compare to simple transmission.
What do you think must reply
Thanks in advance ☺️
Using tones/codes does not have any effect on the farz of your radio that you would be able to detect with your human ear.
2-tone tones for EMS and Fire paging is really important

There is privacy when you live out in the middle of nowhere and no one uses radios
Which one do I use to receive tones from Tommy Tutone?
If he was ever fire department dispatcher they'd call him Tommy Tutone Sequential.
I'll show myself out now :)
you'd need two tones
Go figure, a little bit of constructive criticism and a decent video. Good job!
Are we allowed to discuss these tones without an FCC license? 😉 Good explanation!
This was excellent! Please email me my certificate. So, if I set a receive code, I won't hear my wife yelling at me? What about the voices in my head?
